Guest Accommodation

Monastery Flat: A small flat attached to the monastery itself, comprising bathroom, bed-sitting room and fully equipped kitchen. Suitable for one person, though two can be accommodated (there is a settee which turns into a single bed). The entrance is up a very steep flight of steps.

Peace Cottage: Modern cottage on ground floor, with private garden. It comprises bedroom, sitting room, bathroom and fully equipped kitchen. It is suitable for up to three persons: one single bed in bedroom, plus a convertible settee, which sleeps two, in the sitting room.

The Hermitage: A very small, modern cottage on ground floor, with private garden, suitable for one person only. It comprises bed-sitting room, kitchen and bathroom. The Hermitage adjoins Peace Cottage but has a separate entrance and both cottages enjoy complete privacy.

INFORMATION

The flat and both cottages are self-contained and all breakfast and dairy foods are supplied together with fresh fruit, tea, coffee, biscuits and a few other minimum requirements. We ask that you bring with you any other food you will need. We are happy to provide lunch from the monastery kitchen on request (this will be vegetarian) but all other meals are self-catering.

Our guest accommodation is outside the enclosure. The monastery precincts are not open to the public. But all guests are very welcome to attend daily Mass and the Divine Office in the visitors' chapel, which faces the nuns' choir.

We do not conduct directed retreats, though if you wish to talk privately to a sister during your stay this can be arranged..

In order to avoid our hospitality becoming a commercial venture, we have no fixed charge but rely on your generosity with regard to donations. We aim to provide something comparable to the usual facilities for 'bed and breakfast'; we would therefore recommend £25-£30 per night as a guide for those who can afford it.
We regret that no pets are allowed. We also respectfully ask that our visitors refrain from smoking indoors.

Travel details by road can be provided at the time of booking, if required. The nearest train stations are at Diss (10 miles), Thetford (14 miles) and Attleborough (6 miles). Taxis are available at each of these stations.
